He seems agitated... I hope he's not offended.
Re: CHAPTER 14: Retrace the Tunnels
Denslow groans softly, Me too, Anton. Me too…

The Gam’A Zone 21D/82 (Evening)
A group of four Apemonn approaches, the one in the lead wearing different armor and a helmet.
When they are within earshot, the leader calls out in perfect common, “Who are thee who presumes to summon Honfezgalapad of the Feathered Jowls!? This is our benefactor’s claim, and he is currently engrossed with exploration.”

Silvestri
"I am Silvestri. I have knowledge your benefactor will find useful. If he is deep in the caves then the best option is for you to take us to him."

Max smiles and tries to look non threatening.

“Silvestri of Naught,” he addresses the psionist.
“Our benefactor has endured many hardships traveling to here, and has assured us that the object of his desire cannot be of use to anyone on this world.”
He motions his squad to spread out, guns at the ready but not pointed at you.
“So, unless you know the subterranean location of the Zonamag Onderfott, begone! I will not waste any more time with you.”

Silvestri
The psion's face hardens.
"We have met others from a different world, who call this place the plains of Honfezgalapad and search for items of use only to them. We have assisted them in the past. We have knowledge of the routes and dangers in those caves, and the artefacts within. Would you turn us away when we can help bring success to your benefactors mission. I am sure he would not be happy to learn of your short-sightedness. If the artefact is of no use to us then we are hardly a danger to his mission."
His eyes briefly glow yellow as he releases his domination power at their leader.
"Take us to Honfezgalapad of the Feathered Jowls. He will be pleased with your wise decision to do so."
Domination: [1d20+8]=6+8=14

Re: CHAPTER 14: Retrace the Tunnels
I think Mind Control would work better for this situation, and a 20 or higher is required.
Silvestri is also at Level 5 (Character Sheet upload pending), so his mutation roll modifer is now +9

Re: CHAPTER 14: Retrace the Tunnels
If we’re keeping the same roll, Denslow will lend 3 luck to bring it up to 21
Re: CHAPTER 14: Retrace the Tunnels
Are we going with Mind Control and a Luck boost from Denslow?

Re: CHAPTER 14: Retrace the Tunnels
If Anton can add any luck to the roll he will do so.

Here is what higher rolls will accomplish:Anton_E_Gregor wrote: ↑Tue Jan 23, 2024 5:06 pm If Anton can add any luck to the roll he will do so.
A roll of 20 will result in the desired intent of Silvestri. A 24 will be better yet (advisor vs. leader).
Re: CHAPTER 14: Retrace the Tunnels
Sorry, I'm confused. Silvestri doesn't have mind control, he has domination and empathy. When you mentioned 'mind control' earlier I just thought you meant the higher success results of domination.
Re: CHAPTER 14: Retrace the Tunnels
Shit! I was thinking D&D and spell slots....
Well, for this one time he gets to use Mind Control; GM's gift/error.
Re: CHAPTER 14: Retrace the Tunnels
I can spend 3 points of my own to bring it up to 24.

Silvestri concentrates on the leader, and a series of thoughts enters his mind. The jumbled suggestions are confusing until he ignores all his external senses and lets the inner self take over. He utters a command to the four Apemonn who lock eyes with Silvestri as if he were their charismatic leader.
The psionist’s words ring true, and the leader speaks once again, “Yes, Honfezgalapad will wish to meet you. Come, we will take you to him.” With that, the Apemonn lead you into the valley and to the lower cave (B), 40ft lower that the upper cave (A).
Other Apemonn posted around the area, at least two dozen, look at you with initial surprise but upon seeing the determination in their leader, return to their duties.
The entrance to the lower cave is a flattened oval, shaped like a sad mouth, twenty feet wide by ten feet high. The walls are of gray artificial stone nearly two feet thick. A single Apemonn, holding a rifle, stands watch inside the entrance.
The Apemonn leader produces a small box and speaks into it, “Your excellency, travelers from the North have entered the canyon and know the location of the Zonamag Onderfott.” He listens to the box and responds, “At once, your excellency!”
The leader then turns to Silvestri, “Honfezgalapad of the Feathered Jowls will greet us here. We are not to enter the tunnel.” Suggesting the contrary has no effect.
After around ten minutes, a short and stocky being emerges from the cave. As it clears the edge of the entrance, it morphs into a slender 12ft tall being draped in purple robes and clutching a silver metal ring. Six decorative arcs adorned with crimson feathers radiate from a place on its back. Black horns protrude from the top of its head, framing a macabre face of ivory bone. It surveys the surrounds as if you aren't present and then speaks in a high-pitched, raspy voice.
“I am the Honfezgalapad, referred to as the Feathered Jowls. Why do you come here?”

Kurot stands to the side and watches, wondering how Silvestri plans to find the Zonamag Onderfott.

"We heard of your glory, Honfezgalapad, and of your search for the Zonamag Onderfott. We have overcome many dangers to be here, including threats that still lurk this area. We would aid you if you will allow us."
Anton flips up his visor to show that he is also a bony skull face type person.

Silvestri waits for Honfezgalapad's response.
